70 percent of the vote counted, Gingrich was in second place, with U.S. Rep. Ron Paul trailing in third by just shy of 1,000 votes. --They rival for second.

Back to FL: A Ron Paul supporter has filed a lawsuit against the Newt Gingrich campaign, claiming a security officer for the GOP presidential hopeful stomped on his foot “like he was stomping out a cigarette,” the AP reported.

Edward Dillard, a central Florida resident, said his foot was fractured in the Tuesday incident, which took place on the day of the state’s primary.

According to the AP, Dillard was wearing a Paul T-shirt and holding a sign at a Gingrich campaign stop in Orlando when a “swarm” of security guards surrounded him, one stomping on his foot while he was wearing open sandals.

Just how hard is it to count the caucus votes?? This is very funny in a weird sort of way. These people telling us they are stupid or something? Each precinct is mostly very small, count the votes before they leave, certify them before they leave, register the votes, send them on. (Unless they are seeking different results.)

Count again at the HQs.,how hard is it to COUNT? Just do away with caucuses, which it seems is never a true indication how the majority of people would vote, some people are just not interested in going into the little click groups and voice an opinion.

But one bit of humor, they all still have until April 15th to do their taxes, well maybe.

How in this day and age can there be so many screw-ups in the voting process?

Might as well adopt left wing tactics along with the left wing candidate I guess. The next four years are going to be bad, but the demise of the GOP will be some recompense.
